Chapter 980: Chapter 980: Teacher Gives You an Opportunity!

"Lin Yu, the second thing I want you to learn is ’In your actions, do not be bound by formality!’"

"Those who achieve great things are not caught up in trivialities!"

Shen Peishen was not in a hurry to pose a so-called "question" but instead focused on his most prized student, saying, "Do you know what your biggest problem has been for a long time?"

Lin Yu hesitated slightly, then nodded.

Lin Yu said, "You’ve said that I am sometimes too righteous and rigid, always thinking in terms of right or wrong, black or white, needing a result for everything and not accommodating human feelings."

"Also, I always think of using a fair way to handle affairs and compete with others." Lin Yu’s face showed a hint of embarrassment.

Shen Peishen nodded, "These aren’t wrong in themselves; they are your principles for interacting with the world and why I value you."

"However—"

Shen Peishen sighed deeply, "The hard are easy to break, the gentle are unbeatable!"

"You have resources and support that others can only dream of, yet you always tie your own hands with notions of fairness."

"I won’t call you stupid, but I will ask you, isn’t this exhausting?"

"These have always been burdens on your mind, even affecting how you interact with the world and your methods of resolving various situations. You are too bound by formality. Always trying to achieve the right result in the right way, but often, it’s the result that’s important!"

"Does it matter how it was achieved? What’s important is that it was achieved and what you do afterward!"

"Have you not suffered many failures this past year because you scorned using certain tactics?"

"That is also where you are inferior to him!" Shen Peishen said.

"The person," these three words made Lin Yu’s eyes narrow.

His teacher meant Bai Xiaosheng!

"Teacher, over this past year, you did that on purpose, right?" Lin Yu said, "Letting me bump into walls with my own methods, letting me see that if I am stubborn, I will end up achieving nothing and even going against my wishes!"

Shen Peishen smiled without speaking.

Indeed, he had changed his approach this past year, wanting Lin Yu to hit the south wall not just once, but ten or even twenty times to make his student realize his problems through bloody lessons.

At present, it seemed Lin Yu had gained some insight.

"Not being bound by formality!" Lin Yu repeated Shen Peishen’s words, nodding, "I have your help, many resources, but I always think about not using them, wanting to prove myself on my own..."

"However, whether the approach is martial or unmartial, does it really matter!"

"As long as the final purpose is what I want, then it is accomplished."

"I have always been deceiving myself too much!"

"A year from today, I now realize how ridiculous my stubbornness was!" Lin Yu’s voice became firm.

Shen Peishen smiled.

His disciple had finally become enlightened!

The conversation could continue.

"Lin Yu, your long-time achievements are already enough to vie for the position of Candidate Senior Affairs Officer!" Shen Peishen said seriously, "If I arrange an opportunity for you, to help you reach the position of Candidate Senior Affairs Officer, are you willing?"

If it had been a year ago, Lin Yu would have found it difficult to accept, thinking about achieving everything through his own effort, especially with Bai Xiaosheng as a rival.

But today, after a year and many harsh lessons, Lin Yu’s mind had changed.

At the moment, Lin Yu looked solemn, with only one thing to say—

"I’ll follow the teacher’s arrangements!"

Not being bound by the manner of acquisition, get the results, then prove oneself.

Lin Yu switched from "prove first, obtain later" to "obtain first, prove later".

Shen Peishen smiled, observing Lin Yu as if appreciating his most favored work, growing more pleased the longer he looked.

"Lin Yu, you’ve passed this second test!"

Lin Yu looked calm, smiling at his teacher, "Teacher, what would you have me do next? What kind of opportunity have you arranged to enable me to compete for that rare, single Candidate Senior Affairs Officer position every few years?"

Shen Peishen did not rush to answer, smiled as he took a sip of tea, then finally said, "Your achievements over the years have accumulated to a considerable extent. Apart from Bai Xiaosheng, no one in the Affairs Department can match you! Bai Xiaosheng’s emergence was a matter of timing, orchestrated by Mr. Xiahou Qi, just to push him forward, and it’s also fate. Wasn’t Bai Xiaosheng cooperating with the president’s side to take down a regional manager, a provincial industry head, and several officers?"

"This time, I will let you take down a provincial industry head and an officer in one fell swoop!"

"These, along with your contributions over the years, I’ve calculated, are already enough to solidly outperform Bai Xiaosheng, making you the unquestionable choice for Candidate Senior Affairs Officer!"

Regarding this, Shen Peishen calculated flawlessly, appearing very confident.

Lin Yu was shocked beyond measure, immensely surprised.

"A provincial industry head and an officer, to take down? That means dismissal!" Lin Yu said, "Teacher, this matter is no small feat..."

"Don’t worry, their crimes are sufficient! It’s just that I am still gathering enough evidence to take them down, but it’s almost complete." Shen Peishen smiled with supreme confidence, "Within ten days or half a month, everything will be ready, and you can complete this final sprint!"

He had known about the problems with Zhao Beiqing and Lu Zhixin for a long time, even nurturing these two "fruits" for this very moment—so Lin Yu could pick them!

"And the Candidate Senior Affairs Officer position is about to be activated!" Shen Peishen said.

Lin Yu nodded.

He trusted his teacher immensely.

"Then, may I know in which province those two are currently located, should I rush there now?" Lin Yu asked.

Shen Peishen smiled and shook his head, "They are right under our nose."

"Linshen!" Lin Yu felt incredible.

This could not be a coincidence!

His teacher might have discovered their issues long ago and did nothing, just to let them trap themselves.

To leave them for him!

Lin Yu felt somewhat moved.

His teacher was truly doing everything possible for him!

Shen Peishen observed every subtle emotional change in Lin Yu, taking it all in.

"Lin Yu, my most outstanding student, you are finally no longer the stubborn person you used to be. I’ve been waiting for you to become enlightened for a long time!"

Shen Peishen thought to himself, then another figure emerged in his mind—Bai Xiaosheng!

"Bai Xiaosheng, you are also a blessing in disguise. Without your provocation, Lin Yu would never have accepted the trials so resolutely and transformed so rapidly. In a way, I should thank you!"

Shen Peishen’s eyes sparkled.

"When the right time comes, I also need to make contact with Bai Xiaosheng! In ability, he is not inferior to Lin Yu at all! Both are talents of a century!"

"If Bai Xiaosheng is also willing to work for me, then I would truly be adding wings to a tiger!"

Bai Xiaosheng, Lin Yu, the most outstanding members of the younger generation—if he could get both, they could move the entire Affairs Department.

And even the entire Greater China Region!

Even Shen Peishen’s usually calm heart couldn’t help but burn with zeal.
